title: Leiomyomas in both uterine remnants in a woman with the Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe a case of Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome associated with bilateral myomas in uterine remnants.
  
  
  METHODS
  Case report.
  
  
  METHODS
  University hospital.
  
  
  METHODS
  A 35-year-old woman with MRKH syndrome and pelvic pain, in whom leiomyomas were diagnosed by imaging techniques.
  
  
  METHODS
  Diagnostic laparoscopy followed by excision of leiomyomas and uterine remnants by laparotomy.
  
  
  METHODS
  Resolution of symptoms and histologic confirmation of the clinic diagnosis.
  
  
  RESULTS
  After a 6-month follow-up period, the patient was asymptomatic. The histologic examination confirmed MRKH syndrome associated with multiple myomas in both rudimentary uteri.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This is an unusual case of MRKH syndrome associated with bilateral leiomyomas. The excision of the tumors with the adjacent uterine remnants is indicated when they are symptomatic.
